The holidays are over, and I hope everyone enjoyed! Now we can look forward to Spring!

December was tree decorating and caroling at Friendship Village, and we met at the Post Canteen for a small get-together. We had a great time. For those of you who were not in attendance, please try to make it next year. I am sure you too will enjoy it.

A special thank you to Jeannie DelBusso and her daughters for the Christmas ornaments and face painting for the children's Christmas party. Her ornaments this year were as lovely as ever! What a talent.

Your Ladies Auxiliary meets the 4th Wednesday of each month at 7 PM...January 22, February 26, March 26 are the dates for the first quarter of 2014. Please mark your calendar.

The first quarter will consist of a "health" clinic, i.e. how to improve our meetings, a cancer drive and a blood drive. Your participation in any and/or all would be wonderful.

Ladies! Please be sure to keep track of your activities for year-end reporting. Give them to me. You can leave them in an envelope at the Post with our name on it, and we'll pick it up. It's easier to turn them in as activities are completed rather than waiting 'til the end of the year.

We're open for any and all suggestions. Please call me, write, attend a meeting. Whatever is good for you.

Be safe and try to remain healthy the next few months of winter! See you at the Post...I hope.
